From the survey, we can know the number of Malaria deases from 1960-1995. The
number of Malaria deases became up and down. In 1960 until 1995 the number of
Malaria deases didnt change at 100 people and this number went up to 200 in
1970. In 1975 a boom number of deases occur, it reach 500 people. It mean that
the growth of number is 5 times bigger from 1960. This condition stayed constant
until 1985. This condition may be a really hard time for Somelands government and
citizen. The number of deases start went down in 1985 and the good news is in
1990 the number of deases dropped to zero its mean no more malaria deases in
Somland until 1995.

Slight increase = degree of changing


Fell rapidly = speed of change
